    Hi! Traveling 1/23/09-1/30, staying at Poly. Have 8am ADRs for Tusker House. Which bus would be quicker, resort bus to AK or TTC bus to AK? Would a taxi be worth the time saved? Also, what are the best photo spots in AK before park opening? Thanks!!

    Hi Victoria!

    I love early character meals in the parks! The best thing about an early meal at the Tusker House is that you should be finishing up just as the park opens and you'll be yards away from the entrance to the safari.

    Each resort has a special character breakfast bus that picks up guests that have early breakfast reservations. If I were you, I would take this bus to get to the Animal Kingdom for your 8:00 breakfast with Donald and friends. The character breakfast buses begin running around 7:00 am and will say "Character Breakfast" on the front sign.

    When you are admitted to the park, you will be restricted to the pathway from the front entrance that leads back to Africa where the Tusker House is located. However, you'll walk right past Discovery Island and the Tree of Life which is a great photo opportunity. Another nice spot for pictures is the bridge that you'll pass over on your way. The Animal Kingdom is full of lush vegetation which makes nice backdrops for photos, but the Tree of Life is definitely one not to miss.

    I hope this helps! Enjoy your early breakfast and have a great vacation!
